About two weeks ago I had the feeling that it was time to visit the doctor. You see I am a nurse and often times I will put off going to the doctor, because it is nurse heal thy self. Well I had a headache so severe that I couldn't stand to even look at the light, which to me was just a migrane. But this headache had been here for at least 2-3 weeks. My chest had been hurting on the bottom part of the left side and my left arm had also been hurting or aching. Well guys, on top of being a nurse, I am also a CPR instructor. I know I should have went from the beginning, but I didn't want to miss the time from work or miss the money, so I just kept working and trying to take care of myself.
Needless to say, I needed more than my own care and ended up in the hospital with ocngestive heart failure and now they are running even more test on me to see if there are any blockages in my heart. So my plea to you is.... please don't wait. I could have died and then I really wouldnt have had any money coming in. Which is worst no money or dying.
So even if you are a nurse or a doctor.... seek help when you need it and dont try to fix yourself.
God Bless
